I hate the digital rental schedule. When the movie comes out on physical disk, you have something like two or three months to rent it. If you wait too long, it goes to HBO or Starz and is then unavailable to rent for like the next year or two.

This vaping things reminds me of how those Buckyball toys were banned for a while because theoretically a kid could die. Meanwhile, swimming pools kill kids constantly and you never hear anything about it.
Our reaction to threats are weird. We tend to focus on the unusual (vaping, school shootings) and not the greater threats (cars, swimming pools).

Democrats actually getting to implement all their awful plans is way scarier than AR-15s.

I’m a level-headed conservative. I don’t want to shock people and I don’t care about “owning the libs.” If there’s any sort of national gun confiscation, I’m exactly the sort of guy you want involved in the resultant military coup to make sure it doesn’t exceed its mandate.

Oil is great. It has so much energy packed into it, so it’s great for fuel. You can also make plastic from it! Nifty!
Know what we need? More oil.

Every time I want to make a political prediction, I think back to 2016.
“You know nothing, Frank Fleming.”

I sometimes use “lol” but only when something literally made me produce some laughter like noise. I never use “ROFL” because I have never done that. If that ever happened, it would probably cause my family concern.

The science is pretty settled we have only 10 years left to stop climate change. I mean, people have been saying that consistently for decades.

If Democrats make it illegal to own an AR-15, are they planning to enforce that as much as they do the border or what?

I’m guessing Texas will be a gun sanctuary state.

How dumb is Beto that his final strategy to protect him from irrelevance is to go full Swalwell? The only people who care about gun control as a single issue are the opponents of it.
If an AR-15 is banned or not banned, the average white liberal wouldn’t even know the difference because they’d never run into one anyway. But for the millions of gun owners, it would be the only issue they’d vote on for the rest of their lives.
I’m honestly baffled by this. If you want to stand out in the Dem primary, shouldn’t you come up with some new thing to make free and say you’ll make the rich pay for it?

If somehow a mandatory AR-15 buyback was implemented, what would be a realistic goal for compliance? 5%?

Your illiberalism is much scarier and much more of a threat than any AR-15.

“Molon labe” ain’t a death threat unless you’re an idjit.

People bought AR-15s to make sure the government can’t take AR-15s. How many people do you think are going to comply if the government says “Hand them over”?
And the dumbest thing is, even if you magically disappeared all the AR-15s, it wouldn’t even be a blip in gun homicides. It’s just a pure clown move to anger peaceful gun owners and solve absolutely nothing.

Started watching Halt and Catch Fire last night. First episode was impressive. Chinese wall!

From the debate the other night, I group Booker, Klobuchar, Castro, and Beto in the “you’re still here?” category.

DEM 1: “Trump is pretty awful. We just need to be less awful to beat him.”
DEM 2: “How about instead we be more awful and use his awfulness as a cover for it?”
DEM 1: “Sounds risky… but I LOVE IT!”

DEMS: “Hey, you paranoid gun nuts, no one is coming to take your guns. We just want some common sense–”
BETO: “LEEEEROY JENKINS!!!”

It must suck to be a bird that doesn’t fly. What’s even the point of being a bird then? Whatever you do could be done by a lizard or a rodent.
And while a bird being able to fly is graceful, a mammal being able fly is a frickin’ horror show. Stretched out flesh for wings and an inside out nose for sonar—look like something from a Cronenberg movie.

I think I spend money on Humble Bundles and Steam sales just to keep the dream alive of one day having time again to play computer games.

Beto overheard at a urinal that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Corn Pop.

I usually don’t even watch the NFL, but with Kellen Moore running offense for the Cowboys, I dug the antenna out of the garage so I could get FOX.

Man, I don’t want to believe Corn Pop is real because it’s just so much fun as something crazy Biden made up.

Here’s my unranked list of the greatest games I’ve ever played:

Super Mario World
The Secret of Monkey Island
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Final Fantasy IV
Ultima VI
Metroid Prime
Resident Evil 4
Batman: Arkham City
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Riven

I was trying to keep the list to one game per series, but Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild are two great games in very different ways.

So far the technical detail that most jumped out at me in Halt and Catch Fire was someone telling a programmer how beautiful her bios code was. I’m trying and failing to imagine beautiful assembly code.

I feel like Gary Larson successfully keeping The Far Side from being online has successfully caused it to fade from people’s consciousness since the internet is where everything is shared now. Hopefully that will change.

The Far Side was the Seinfeld of the funny pages, wasn’t it?

Man, I was just thinking of all the different things I’d have to explain to my kids that they know nothing about to explain the joy of the Sunday funny pages.

Democrats should impeach Trump and Kavanaugh at the same time. That would be hilarious.

Reading the book Babies with Down Syndrome: A New Parent’s Guide. I think it’s smart that it starts with a foreword written by someone with Down syndrome.

So Biden has been saying this Corn Pop anecdote for years and this is the first we’re hearing of it? How is this not the first thing anyone ever thinks of when Biden is mentioned? Did no one read his autobiography?

Season 2 of the new DuckTales was great. I really really enjoy watching it with my kids, though of course the jokes I find funniest go over their heads while they find plenty of other things to crack up about.

Remake The Warriors starring Joe Biden.

Vox: “Here’s how to remove Brett Kavanaugh without impeaching him and here’s how to build a real phaser like from Star Trek.”

“Canceling is mine,” says the Lord

Ghostbusters III: No Girls Allowed

Don’t know anything about Shane Gillis. He could be the racisty racist that ever racisted. I do know that cancel people are just as awful as any racist. What sort of person goes after someone to get him fired? Unless Gillis was burning a cross on your lawn, you’re being garbage.

If you had a magic wand that could magically cause all guns to disappear in the world and never come back, would you use it?
Looking at the world before guns and how much more the strong preyed on the weak, I’d say I definitely would not.
In fact, I might try to figure out how to reverse the polarity of the wand and instead give everyone in the world guns.

What would make me interested in a new Spider-Man movie would be if they brought back Tobey Maguire. I want old man Spider-Man!

Yang is the only presidential candidate I wouldn’t send to prison.

What is the absolute worst story about Kavanaugh from the past three decades?
